Attilio Micheluzzi (1930 - 1990) was an Italian comics artist. Born in Umag, at the time part of Italy, Micheluzzi graduated in architecture and worked for several years in Africa. Returning to Italy in the early 1970s, in 1972 he started collaborating with the magazine Corriere dei Piccoli, often under the pen name Igor Arzbajeff. Among the best known comics created by Micheluzzi, there were the science fiction series Roy Mann, with texts by Tiziano Sclavi, and the adventure series Petra Chérie and Johnny Focus.
